The enemy of good is not evil, but apathy.

Just watched a video on sex slavery online. It brings back some much memories of the what I read and experienced in Cambodia. On one of my humanitarian trip there, we signed up for a program that allow us to shadow garbage collector kids and interview prostitutes.

It was like 6am and the first part was following behind a really young child, maybe aged 7-10 years old who collects glass bottles and precious sellable stuff that he finds on the street. Dragging a big sack behind him, he bends low at every dump of rubbish found along side of the road. That boy will do that in the morning so that he can earn some money for his family. After which, he will go to school that is sponsored by a NGO. We interviewed him and he shared that he had to take care of his family as his dad ran away. He would use the money to support his sister's school fees and also feed the family. After talking to him for awhile, we realize that he does have things he likes and aspirations that he wants to achieve. He loves to play soccer and wants to grow up being a scorer player. He is no different from the kids in my neighborhood except that he is born in a "wrong place".
